Hi,
Looking at this link...
Linux Security: Securing and Hardening Linux Production Systems (Linux Security Cookbook / HOWTO / Guide)

It may be possible that oracle account may have exceeded the maximum login attempts and is locked.

You may need to post your /etc/pam.d/system-auth file to check if account lock is enabled.. something like...

Code:
account     required      /lib/security/$ISA/pam_tally.so per_user deny=5 no_magic_root reset
